[PLUG] APM resume & mouse problem

When you are in X and suspend the machine all goes well.  When you
resume the mouse takes on a Mr. Hyde personality and does not do
anything sane.  It jumps all over the place and creates random button
presses.  Works flawlessly until you resume.

If you ctrl-alt-backspace X and then start again, everything is fine.

gpm is not even installed (can't believe how long gpm/X interaction
has remained broken in Debian) so I know that's not the problem.

I don't have a clue as to what's going on and a lot of searching on
google-groups didn't turn up anything useful - other than have apm
kill X and then restart it - which is not a solution.

Just to add insult to injury it's in that "it used to work category".

Help ?

Brian
